To be clear...are you talkign about the color of the clock tiles themselves, directly behind the letters? Or the background (wallpaper) on the home tab?
At first I thought you meant the border around the bottom half of the clock, where the weather shows up...but you shouldn't have that on a 6.1 ROM..
the two tone gray background of the clock itself, if it is at all possible without changing the clock numbers. I can swipe my finger "up" and then the numbers on the clock become smaller and the background goes away....thats what im after. and thanks for not railing on me, I may have alot of posts but 97% or more are questions lol but im getting better.

No problem What you're talking about is the clock tiles, and they are certainly replacable with custom ones. The trick is determining exactly what version of TF3D or Sense you have, you'll have to know that to know which custom clocks to look for and download.
Do you have an "About" entry on the "settings" tab? If so it'll tell you what version you have. If you don't see that there, you can just look it up in the registry (I'll show you where)...do you have a regedit app? (Total Commander, PHM_regedit, etc)
this is why i never delve too much into this stuff but am starting to. way too much stuff to keep up with while trying to run my own buisness, thanks for your help
I have winmo 6.1 CD OS 5.2.21052
I dont know what "sence" i have ....if any at all lol.
and all i want to do is make the clock tile transparent or just delete it if possible.

I dug around in some clock files and found this for you to try, there is no guarantee that it will work as i cant test it for you, but i looked at in with CFC gui and it looks promising!
It might be a good idea to back up the same file in your rom,
Untick manila in "home settings" then copy the file using TC or something
retick manila and it should show.
I hope it works for you

Ok yeah I have the same version as Tregrad (TF3D 2.1), and that manila file worked just fine on mine when I tested it...it makes the clock tiles 100% transparent.
However, getting that manila file into the right place on your phone takes a little doing...do you (Tregrad) know how to copy files into and out of your phone's /windows directory?
Maybe someone would be willing to cab that up for you to make it easier...but if not, we can show you how to get it on there and working.

so should i wait for the cab or what? or can i just drop the file in the windows directory? and thanks again for your help fellas.

if you can just drop in the windows folder, there's no real need for a cab just makes it more convenient is all! go ahead and try it out i'm dying to know if it works! See if you can find the matching file first and back it up though...I would
ok will give it a shot right now
no change at all hmmm copied orig file and put it in a folder on my pc and "replaced" existing file with the new one and rebooted but nothing happened.

dont even have an option to untick manilla
Ok heres the Cab, sorry for the delay!!
there must be a tick box in "Items" Under today settings, and it will be Manila or TF3d or something HTC related! its been so long since i used this ROm i can't remember
So untick whatever it is and then install the cab then retick and it should have overwritten....Good Luck
ok tf3d is ticked, I am going to try the file thing first then if that doesnt work then i will try the cab, thanks.
nope, none of it worked. unticked, ran cab, wanted to restart - let it do so, restarted then re-ticked tf3d and nothing happened?
should i delete the existing file? if it isnt there then it wont want to run it right and since i just want it gone it wouldnt hurt right?
I have to go for now be back in a few hours. thanks again for all your efforts os!

It seems they are just little number files but they won''t overwrite the existing files that are in the Windows directory.
Anyway I really like the look and wonder if there is a CAB type file that will install and voila, you have the Diamond look digital clock?
Anybody know of such a program?
Or a really simple set of instructions.
I followed the instructions and I can't get it to work.
Or how about a way to get the "Diamond" Digital Clock in to S2U2?
Help... help... help...
Hi Jim,
I was actually looking for quite some time and found a diamond digital clock cab. It was here in XDA but I cant find the thread I found it in (It was in the main hacking and development thread)
I'll just repost the cab file and hope I dont get reemed out. I take NO credit for makng this file what so ever.
I had tried installing it before on my vogue and it wasnt working then I upgraded my rom to 6.1 and figured Id give it a shot and it worked. I dont know if that had anything to do with it. it SHOULD still work in WM6 I just wasnt able to get it to work for some reason.
I think you have to disable HTC home as well too before you install the cab.
Nice find!
When I try to install on 6.1 it says "Installation unsuccessful". Any thoughts?
...Nevermind. For some reason it was copying itself when I put it on the sd card and one of the files was broken.
when you have it running is the clock in h:mm:ss tt format (ie 8:04 pm) or is it in hh:mm:ss tt (08:04 pm) I cant for the life of me get the zero infront of the single digit time (anywhere from 1-9 am or pm). just really erking me thats all. I had only installed this myself last night when I saw this thread asking for it so sort of a coincidence.
Anyway.. yeah let me know how your clock works and if you had to do something to fix it. I went into the regional settings and what not and changed the time format but still didnt change anything even after a reset.
For anyone who's installed the cab I posted and had the same issues I had (the 0 infront of the time (08:43 pm) then heres a quick fix I found in the hacking/development thread in the main forum.
Just copy the file in the zip file to your new HTC Home folder on your phone. Should be /HTCHome, sp right in the phones main directory alone with my documents and program files etc. If when you copy it over to replace the exsiting HH_Home_off. png in the folder it wont work go and disable the HTC Home plugin then copy it. That worked for me. Now I finally have a normal looking clock without always having to have 4 numbers showing.

Since I installed this I can only select Bakersfield for my weather.
Anyone know a workaround?
Also this plugin severly lags my touch, anyone else?
Thanks.
diamond clock
So does anyone know of a diamond clock that actually flips like the real diamond clock?? All the skins for HTC HC are great but i would love to find something closer to the real deal.
Actually it doesn't lag anymore, but my weather is ONLY Bakersfield.
IS that with everyone else?

I had this same issue... What I had to do was uninstall it.. use the normal HTC home and reselect my city then reload on this updated version. Aparently all you have to do is add the XML of your city somewhere in the registy... I have no idea how so if anyone knows how feel free to let us know.
Since I did the steps above I havnt gone in to "Change city" anymore and it updates my city fine

I uninstalled and reinstalled and it worked as you said it did. However, when I changed it from Fahrenheit to Celcius thats when it updated to Bakersfield.
I can sort of understand Fahr, but Celcius would be much nicer. I think the benefit outweighs the cost so i'll use canada + fahr . Unless you know how to fix this.
Hi guys, i've searched High and low to get the Sprint clock on my fone, i installed TF3d config, but nothin seems to change, i install skins, reset fone and when i swithch it back on, i still get that flip clock, which ahs strted 2 annoy me now. lol
Can anyone tell me how i can change the clock without TF3d Config, or how i can atleast get TF3d to work.
I have the HTC Diamon

Where am i goin wrong.....I NEED THAT CLOCK.
Have u tried the Sprint Clock cab file?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2690232#post2690232
do it like this...
copy the cab file to your phone...
Then click Start->Settings->Today->Objects->Uncheck TouchFLO 3D->Press ok
run the cab file to install the Sprint clock
Maybe it says you need to restart phone, you dont need to but u can do it if it ask u too...
Then click Start->Settings->Today->Objects->check TouchFLO 3D->Press ok
Now u should have the sprint clock
Sprint Clock
Thanks for your response mate, ur great!!!
I installed the clock, and it looks sexy.....But!!,
It freezes the scrolling option through the icons, i cannot use my finger to scroll from home to contacts to messages, nothing can be selected, it just freezes on the home page and the clock time doesn't change. How do i install it so it works perfectly.
Thanks in advance for any assistance guys.
Same problem here (TF3D freezes when I tap a tab instead of scrolling to it). Anyone else experiencing this? It started after I installed the Sprint clock.
Anyone have the sprint icons? LOVE THEM, i just can't find them

Hi im a little confused on how to use this app....where do i navigate the application to? Because when i connect the diamond via active syn it does not display the windows folder...thanks.
Apologies for the bump, but I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the frequent freezes with both the Sprint clock on the regular TF3D and the Sprint TF3D? (ROM: Elite 2.0) Anyone found any solutions yet?
Solution found
Hey White Pawn, i found a solution but it involves flashing your diamond, so be very careful, and think if it's wrth it, i done it and was very happily enjoyin the sprint theme till i got bored. Flash ur Device to rom 1.93 i believe and the rest, then install TF3D config and change the theme. Some have been warned not to use TF3D on their Devices, so be warned also, i did it and it worked fine for me, but it may have different results fr u.

o.k so maybe your trying to be quick and clever but in the process your coming off a bit silly. Read what you've typed, and now repeat the words fone and phone back to yourself, they both sound the same phonetically, So I believe what you have a problem with, is the way in which the word phone was spelt, NOT how it sounds, because there is no difference. Try again teacher. LOL, LOL. This is my first and final response on this very trivial matter, i don't even understand why you felt the need to even comment.
I have seen a number of threads where vodafone users are wanting to change from the horrible red TF3D that vodafone deceided to 'brand' the phone with including myself. I have looked into the various ones on offer and imho, they don't quite cut it for me.
So, I am after the standard OEM TF3D that HTC put out that will also change the colours of the switches in the comm managers and all the the 'tick boxes'
I am offering £100 for this, but everything must work flawlessly and must be inline with my version of TF3D.
So stats for my phone are;
ROM - 1.14.161.6 (Build 50207) WWE
ROM Date - 23/06/09
Radio - 3.44.25.27
Protocol - 61.25t.25.19U
TF3D - 2.1.38158.2
If you need a copy of my ROM to help, it can be downloaded directly from Vodafone HERE
If there is anythingelse you need let me know
(MODS, if this is in the wrong place, apologies, please move)
I know it's only been a few days but, am I asking for the impossible? Would have thought someone might have been interested in £100 or the equivilent in dollars or whatever currency.
Okay.. I'll bite. It'll require some work, but it's doable. If I'm understanding this right, you want to overwrite the manila already on your phone right ? Or do you want this stock HTC manila in a custom rom ? Or... do you want me to recook the vodaphone rom with a stock Manila ?!

Thanks for taking up the challenge!
Definitely want to overwrite the manila on the phone, don't think there's any need to recook the vodafone rom unless you think this would be a better way of doing things. Although admittedly, wanted to do it *.cab file method as it's easier to return the phone to stock (well, it is for me!)
Just wanted to be very specific on the manila version as I don't want to have to fiddle and mess around with weather tabs in the wrong langauge, only have the touch focus colours changing etc. Also want to ensure that the facebook integration works all ok, and things like when veiwing the calendar in the day view, touching the arrow buttom returns to the month view and not going back to home screen. also want to have very specific items on the start menu to.
am i missing something here ?? ... why not put a clean, stock HTC ROM on your phone ?
I've got a branded voda and played with the various cabs floating about to de-brand it and none of them worked 100%
But now HARDspl is out why bother ?

That's a fair point, but I have had bad experiences before with flashing roms and it's not something that I want to do right now. I am happy with the voda rom, just not it's tf3d and if what I want done is done properly theen there should be no issues.
ok , fair enough mate , horses for courses i suppose.
If someone re-cooks the branded rom though, you're still gonna need HARDspl and a flash.
Doubt a .cab will cut it 100%
simple to Cab, but will take away a lot of memory, since that file to overwrite take them memory... but if this is what you want!
EDIT: Give me 20 minutes and have the cab!

honestly mate, save all your dicking about... HARDspl , instal NRGZ28's new WinMo 6.5 manilla 2.1 ROM See it here , and throw him a few quid via a donation. Have a personal recommendation from me.
You can get the voda stock ROM from here if you ever need it : http://xda.caspersworld.co.uk/ and the SPL is also re-lockable
will be a lot more clean and stable with a new ROM, what else is holding you back ?

I like a look of my stock tp2 (with WinMo 6.5) but there are 2 things I would like to change:
1. When I tap start I don’t want my background to change to something predefined.
2. To change the experience of clock i.e. transparent background with white numbers.
Can somebody direct me where to look?

1. Open Windows Pictures & Videos program, find the picture you want as your Start Menu Background, Once you found the one you want click and open it, then click on the menu button, then there will be an option to "Set as Home Background" select it and follow the prompts and your all done
2. As far as this goes, this requires some various mods and tweaks...not sure exactly what you are asking for...but this depends on what your phone is running and that tells you what mods you can install...do some searching and reading
acidbath5546, thank you for a fast reply.
Well, I would like clock like this one in attachment, with weather forecast of course. I hope that changing clock won’t require flashing the phone.
My phone is running stock Win 6.5 rom. The phone is 1 weak old.... I trayed reading and searching..but in every theme there are 50 + pages of posts...Hard to find explanation, when i dont understand even a term "manila", as far as i'm concerned Manila is the capital of the Philippines.
Im not afraid of tweeking, but only if i know what im looking for.

LOL...Not a problem man
We were all afraid of tweaking at one point.
From what you said you are looking for a clock that also has the weather update inside of it. That is found only in custom ROMS.
It is a version of TouchFlo3D that is called "Sense 2.1 or Sense 2.5" you will also see it said as "Manila 2.1 w/Sense and 2.5".
If you want a good place to read about all this stuff, there is a great site/blog that has everything in one central place, it helped me a lot back when I had an HTC Fuze, and there is one just for the HTC TP2
See here:
http://tilt2.blownfuze.org/
So if you really really wanted that clock and some cooler stuff, you would have to flash a "Custom ROM".
If you need any more help or want my opinion feel free to send me a private message/PM and I will help if I can.

As far as your PM about how to find your Manila Version....
I dont really remember that much about your Stock/Regular version, been awhile since I used it.
But if you slide you slider all the way to the settings tab, there should be a selection that says "About Phone" or software info or something like that, that you can click on.
But after seeing your ROM version you sent me, you have an older/standat version of regular Manila 2.1, NOT SENSE manila 2.1, which is what you are looking for, with the weather forecast clock and what not....
Does anyone know how to change the lock slider to the bottom like the iPhone? please help. Thanks.
search "S2U2" via google.
problem is I'll slide twice as both two lock screen programs are running
For a start, there is a way to turn off the default lock screen if you're using S2U2
Tip 27 from the Hints and Tips thread (I strongly suggest you read it all)
Tip 27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0, or use the following cab:

Second, you don't need to use a 3rd party app, you can just run the HeartOfWolf Lockscreen mod in my signature and it'll move the slider to the bottom of the screen for you. I have no idea why they put it at the top?

Can you explain a bit about this one rather than just post the cab please
You can try the HD2 Mini lockscreen cab..it's quite good, just don't use the PIN unlock.
It's slide down to unlock and it tells you any missed calls, SMS, emails etc...i quite like it actually..

You can also take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632637
At the bottom, the OP posted a modified 480x800 cpr file to do want you want. All you need to do is change the extension from .txt to .cpr, open file explorer and put it in the Windows\Lockscreen file and soft reset.
EDIT:
Also, if you are using the HeartofWolf Mod and would prefer to have the original larger slider size instead of the small skinny one, I've made a few modifications to his LS_LockScene_480x800 and attached it below. All you need to do is change the file extension from .txt to .cpr and install it into your windows\lockscreen file, soft reset and you're good to go. Of course, please back up the original LS_LockScene_480x800 before installing this one, just in case you would like to revert back to the small slider. And of course all credits to HeartofWolf, I just made a couple of changes to his work.

It literally swaps the slider and phone location on the lock screen, nothing more.
Another nice solution is DJ Pete's locksreen. It's a simple modification of the windows lockscreen with manila clock, calendar appointments and slider variations. You can find it at pocketpc.ch in the thread
[Lockscreen] iLook v3.0c [NEUE VERSIONEN!|WM6.5/6.5.x WVGA][27.02.10].
! It's in German.

Kandekied, to get you started, go into your windows directory inside file explorer and open the lockscreen folder. Next, copy the file LS_LockScene_480x800 somewhere onto your PC and open it using notepad. That particular file is for Portrait. If you want to modify landscape also, then copy LS_Lockscene_800x480. With the file open on your PC in notepad, you are now ready to begin modifying. The particulars of what you want to do would take alot of space on this post to describe, but to get you pointed in the right direction, I've copied a few threads for you to look at that will help you get started.

You see, this is why I asked for more information about this in the first place. I never install a cab that I've not read about first and that people have tested a bit. You should always link to the thread a cab came from, not just the cab.
Also, chill out. You installed a cab from a random thread and it wasn't what you wanted. If you have to hard reset it's your problem not ours.
If people don't reply to a post it's because they either don't want to or don't know. There is no point in wetting your panties and posting multiple times. It's more likely just to p!ss everyone off and make them not reply.
